Principal's Office Lyrics

Now normally if I can help
But I don't spend a lot of time in a principal's office
What? 9'o clock

Now as I get to school, I hear the late bell ringin'
Runnin' through the halls, I hear the Glee Club singin'
Get to the office, I can hardly speak
'Cause it's the third late pa*s that I got this week

So to my first cla*s, I run an' don't walk
All I hear is my sneakers an' the scratchin' of chalk
An' as I get to the room, I hear the teacher say
?Mr. Young, I'm very happy that you could join us today?

I try to sit down so I can take some notes
But I can't read what the kid next to me wrote
An' if that wasn't enough to make my mornin' complete
As I try to get up, I find this gum on my seat

An' with the seat stuck to me, I raise my hand
An' say, ?Excuse me but can I go to the bathroom, Ma'am??
The teacher got upset an' she screamed out, ?No
It's off the principal's office you go?

12 o'clock comes with ma*s hysteria
Everybody rushes down to the cafeteria
Picked up my tray to have Thursday's lunch
An' as I tried the apple sauce, I heard it crunch

I'm runnin' up the stairs with my front tooth broken
The nurse just laughed an' said you must be jokin'
I looked up at her with a smile on my face
No joke 'cause my front tooth is out of place

So I walked to school with ice on my lip
The nurse's late pa*s like a gun on my hip
My books are real heavy, I'm walkin', I'm draggin' it
No school lunch next week, I'm brown-baggin' it

Forget cla*s, I'ma shoot some ball
With the late pa*s, I got no trouble at all
But then the nurse walks up an' says, ?What do you know?
It's office to the prinicipal's office you go?

Recess

Pa*sin' notes is my favorite pastime
I can't wait to find a girl to pa*s mine to
To express my feelin'
Give me a week, B an' the girl'll be dealin'

Now one young lady was lookin' at me
I said, ?Hi, my name is Marvin, known as Young MC?
But then the bell rang an' the teacher came in
An' that's when the game of pa*sin' notes would begin'

I wrote the first note, told her she was fine
An' I hoped that the two of us could spend some time
She wrote me back an' told me, ?You're fine too
I'd love to go on a date an' spend some time with you?

So then I sat there reelin' an' lookin' at the ceilin'
Words can't express the way that I was feelin'
Then I thought to myself the sure way to get her
Is to write another note, oh, yes, a love letter

When I finished the note, it was ready to pa*s
The teacher took it an' read it right in front of the cla*s
She read it word by word an' line by line
An' everybody who was laughin' was a friend of mine

Even my girl was laughin', it was too late
For me to write another note 'cause there would be no date
The teacher looked at me an' I said, ?I know
It's off to the principal's office I go?

Yo, you think this is bad, wait 'til I get my report card
